By 1940, Minnesota was known as one the most cooperative-minded states in the Union. More than 600 cooperative creameries, 150 township mutual fire insurance companies, hundreds of rural telephone associations, and 270 farmers' elevators were proof of the power of economic cooperation, and they made Minnesota into a "cooperative commonwealth."

Excerpt from Co-Operation for Farmers I have found by experience that any book written on an economic subject at the present time is likely to be regarded by the critics, and perhaps by all readers, as an attempt to solve all the problems of reconstruction. Let me say at once that I feel'no ambition and Claim no compe tence for such 'a task. Judged by that standard this book has no value. Let me disarm the critic by saying with all the clearness I can command that I do not regard co-operation as a panacea for all ills; I am not disposed to fear the dissolution of the universe if the Co-operative commonwealth delays its coming a few more years, nor to expect the millennium if the contrary take place. I seek merely to contribute one small stone to the building by setting before English readers what I have learned in practice of the benefits of co-operation in agri culture and the means of increasing'those benefits. On no further point do I invite either blame or praise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
